Swansea City stadium announcer Kevin Johns features as a 'hero' embodying the spirit of football in a new video by Premier League sponsor Barclays.

Charismatic Kevin, who has been awarded the MBE, is famed for his radio presenting and acting as well as his role at the Liberty Stadium on a Saturday.

He was followed by cameras for the first home game of the season versus Burnley on August 23.

The video, which you can watch above, showcases his role in lifting the crowd at home matches and captures the passion he has for his hometown club.

The film is the second in the ‘Spirit of the Game Heroes’ campaign.

It chronicles those who make the Barclays Premier League what it is.

Barclays asked every Premier League club in the country to nominate one person who best represented the passion behind their club.

Swansea City nominated Kevin because of the passion he brings to the match day experience and his place in Swansea City folklore.

In the video, Kevin recounts falling in love with the club on his first visit to the Vetch Field to his vital role in the 2011 Play-Off final against Reading with his famous ‘braveheart speech’ ahead of kick-off.

Huw Jenkins, Swansea City chairman, said:"Kevin Johns has been an integral part of the recent history of our football club and we are proud that Barclays have made this film about him as a representative of our magnificent fanbase.

"He plays a vital role on match days in exciting our fans and making our passionate home advantage count."

David Wheldon, Managing Director of Brand, Reputation, Citizenship and Marketing at Barclays, said: "Our Spirit of the Game Heroes campaign gives us the chance to say thank you to an exceptional individual at each Barclays Premier League club and showcase their story through our matchday promotions and this series of short films.

"Kevin stood out because of the way he is able to galvanise the Swansea crowd through his passion for the club and I’m sure fans will enjoy his story as much as we have."

*Throughout the rest of the 2014/15 season Barclays will continue to highlight those people, both young and old, who champion the true spirit of the game and will be rewarding fans who join the conversation via the Barclays Football Facebook Page or Barclays Footy Twitter Page with exclusive ticket and merchandise giveaways.
